18 mans

Hey guys,

I've been playing the 18 mans and this is what it looks like for the month so far:

413 $1 $7 19% $513

And I've stopped pussing out and have started mixing in 16/18s. The play's still awful, I saw this today:

MP raises to 120 at 10/20, I jam QQ from the btn for 1500, villain calls with 66...

I dropped $200 the other day which was annoying but I have to just get over it. The worst that'll happen is that I'll get into makeup which is w/e. I think my game's improving a lot, I've been posting a lotta HH's and getting feedback. I'm still not great, but think I'm doing much better.

I still haven't gotten two grades back from school. We finished exams on the 21st, but my stuff was in for these classes 4 days before the end of exams. It's the 26th now and apparently these two classes regularly submit grades as late as mid January. What is that? Can you really not grade exams/papers within a week or so? It really shouldn't be that hard.

Still picking out classes for next semester. I'm thinking:

Political Philosophy
Philosophy of Science
Nature of Morality
Easy Class/Maybe Math Class/Philosophy and Tragedy

We'll see.

Trying to get back into shape so I've started running. I go back 18 days before other kids for sports so my break's much shorter than most. Gonna go run now and put in another set later.

Thanks for reading,
Yodaddy

Hot Session

Played 180s tonight for 4 hour or so, got in 37 games, +937. Obv ran really hot but it was pretty annoying because I donked off huge stacks at FT's to get 2 3rds, 1 1st, and some other finishes. Oh well, it'll get my online roll up to 3800 or so and I just realized that I didn't cash a check from two summers ago so +1k for my checking acct, ship it.

Got the gf a bracelet from Tiffany's which I think is pretty reasonable for the holidays, but I'll be interested to see what she gets me. Three weeks in she got me a $500 belt so we'll see...

Going home on Sunday, should be good.

Semester's End

Hey guys,

Semester's coming to a close and I can't wait to get home for the holidays. I really wanna make some money in the time that I'm home because I'll have my 30" monitor and desktop (I only have my mac laptop aka no scripts at school). I played some 180s tonight and got a 3rd in a 12 but only ended +10 or sth. I think I'm playing pretty well and submitted the HH so we'll see how I'm doing. I was looking at a cEV push/fold chart and I think I may not have been pushing quite wide enough in certain spots. It's just that antes are such a big deal in the 180s that they can make a huge swing in your shoving range.

Anyway, we'll see how many games I can get in over the 18 days that I'm home. I would be off from now until the 27th (I know, right?) but have to go back on the 9th for squash. Just brutal.

I've also managed to get through like 3k this semester in spending money so I wanna grind and avoid withdrawing from my online roll. It's nice being able to eat off campus, get drinks, etc and not have to really worry about the cost. I guess it's a small thing but some kids probably stress over it and I just don't think about it too much.

I checked out my SS for the last 2,000 games (all 180s) and here are the results:

Yodaddy379 2,000 $3.07 $7 35% $6,143

So it's good, I just have to really get on my grind over break and make it happen. I think 1000 games in 18 days is a good goal to shoot for. Hopefully I can get at least 3/game over that span and get a bit more spending money.

Not much else is going on in my life, but given where I'm at, no news is good news imo.

Happy holidays to everyone,
Yodaddy
